During the first flair up of annexation threats the Canadian Forces revealed they were preparing for a possible conflict that would require them to learn from their loss to the Taliban. There is no true dependency on the US if push comes to shove.

Edit: also, the US is actively losing to Iran, dont count Canada out so quickly.

Shutting down the St. Lawrence seaway would probably not be difficult for a determined insurgency.

The strait of Hormuz might be pennies compared to that.
